[RELEASE] Zodian - 1080 + Music

[maximus37]

First off, I'd like to thank @azvarel and @Víctor-Téllez. I've taken the Zodian theme that azvarel worked on, doubled the image sizes for clarity on 1080p screens, and then added the system music from Victor's custom simplelight theme he made.

Hope you like the small updates! And again, thanks for the work guys!

Nice Job!

Beware only of WSOD

[maximus37]

@azvarel Thanks!

Do you mean for missed systems ?

[azvarel]

@maximus37 Above 5 systems the ES is broken so I did not do it in 1080p

[makination]

Anybody tested it? The system crashes or not?

[rockaddicted]

It is not a problem with this theme specifically, but all themes using 1 background image with a HD resolution by system in ES.
Vram is filled with less that 10 systems activated, and ES crash during boot (white screen of death - WOSD).

[azvarel]

I tested it, I had a lot of headaches thinking it was my tv problem

@azvarel said in Problem with TV Samsung 40":

I found out why the recalbox is catching on TV, at 1080p resolution, it was the zoid theme that was messing with the recalbox.

I put the default recalbox theme and it is working normally.

---

The issue is that the zoid theme used a file with resolution 1920x1080, in .jpg and by proper attempt, because I did not find anything referring to WSOD at the time, I did compiling .png from the backgrounds and only then realized that the calculation that ES made was Based on resolution rather than file size.

[maximus37]

Hmmm, I will try it again soon enough, I didn't crash on startup, but I'll cycle through all my systems and then load a few games, do some back and forth.

[azvarel]

Tell me what your tv resolution, let's do some experiments

[maximus37]

@azvarel I'm on a 1080p tv, I'll let you know what I get as a result.

Btw, if the 1080 images do cause a problem (which I'm assuming they will), what about 720 resolution, is that still too high?

[azvarel]

1080p: about 10
720p: about 20
480p: about 40/45
Once vram filled, you'll have a WSOD (White Screen Of Death) in ES

[maximus37]

@azvarel Wow! that's something I definitely wasn't aware of.

Thanks for the info!

[azvarel]

That's why I did it in 576p

[maximus37]

@azvarel : Ok, here is my setup:

RPi2 with 16 systems. Recalbox installed on an SD card with everything else on my usb key (roms, themes, etc.)

I cycled through all my systems back and forth, then cycled through all the detail screens and then back to the system screens. So far I was unable to crash ES.

But I'll keep trying.... my setup is still a work in progress, thats why I only have 16 systems.

So now I'm wondering....does it have to do with the RESOLUTION of the images, or the FILE SIZES that causes the crash? Hmmmm.....

[Nainain]

Merci!
J'adore ce thème, clair et épuré!

RESOLUTION OF THE IMAGES

[RetroWilly]

Nice theme!

About the WSOD. This is the reason i keep background images in my themes on 480p for now , since i want to keep it as stable as possible. One of the mod's pointed me on that on time.

Cropping images for now it is.

[summunx]

tengo este error , alguna solucion?

[makination]

I don't understand yet if i install this theme my system will crash. I've got 17 systems on Recalbox right now, will i get WSOD if i install this?

What to do if WSOD? The only solution is format sd card and reinstall all?

Thanks!
